The temptation of sex

Why is he hung up on sex again in chapter seven of Proverbs? Because the misuse of it can ruin your life. Look at the description of the woman, the comments she makes, and the lies she tells. Ladies just reverse the sex of the tempter and you will be caught in the trap as well.

Does wisdom call out to us as Solomon asks in Proverbs chapter 8? Have you ever had a decision to make and someone gave you the advice you did not take? If the choice was the wrong one, you ignored the voice of wisdom. How do we know it is wise? It is the truth and will add to your life. Good decisions provide wealth, honor, and righteousness.

Jehovah created wisdom. Before the universe or the earth came to be, wise words existed. When it came about is not important. The fact that it was made by Yahweh is.

What are the simple ways that are spoken of in Proverbs 9? Would you like to know if you are wise or a mocker? Verse eight says that a mocker will hate those who rebuke them, but a wise man will love them.

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.”  When we speak of fearing God, it is more respect than terror brought on by an evil master. We know that life is hard but living it with God will make it easier.
